I have a spreadsheet with three columns of data. Column 1 and 2 have multiple matches. Columns 3 are all unique values.
I am trying to make three drop downs that only show unique values in each based on the selection from the previous drop down. However, only tutorials I can find have 2 columns of data not 3. When I try to expand to three columns, my second column drop down list includes duplicate values. How do I remove them?

Please tutorial I followed: http://www.xelplus.com/find-multiple-matches-in-excel-dependent-drop-down-list/
it's from excel VP Leila Gharani

Another tutorial I used is:

also by Leila Gharani
